I know some people have asked for this again lately. I just got around to doing it today. It worked perfectly for me. Thanks.
[EVO 4G General] ibcenu:
Since release 25.. not needed... GPS works in cm7 without doing anything.
[EVO 4G General] ageesm:
Because they are completely different processes. A2SD puts a dynamic link in the /data/app location and mounts the sd-ext partition to it allowing all apps to be placed there not just the ones that are 'supported' and I have a lot of apps. In addition you can put the davlik cache and coming soon data on there as well. These aren't really as important with the EVO and especially CM because there is a decent amount of space, but it is nice to be able to use.

I have a post there as well, but as it gets a lot less traffic and this thread is about CM7 specifically, there is no reason I shouldn't be able to get an answer here.

Please don't take this the wrong way, I do not mean it maliciously, more of an observation. It seems this thread is more about people posting how excited they are about feature 'X' that has been committed recently, than for actual support and troubleshooting for CM7 nightly users.

I try out a lot of different ROMs, and I never stuck with CM very long because I have an 0004. Ever since the HTC released the source code and it became supported everywhere I was anxious to experiment, a2sd was simply an issue I had...
[EVO 4G General] Examiner19:
I didn't know that, thanks. Did this correct itself when flashing over earlier nighlies or only with 25 or later after a full wipe?
[EVO 4G General] ibcenu:
I had issues flashing a theme over cm7 that was an old file... it made my phone bootloop... even made all my nand backups non restorable

I downloaded the s- on tool and the factory 36IMG file and unrooted, restored factory... re rooted, then went right to release 25 ... right away the nav/ gps worked... I never did the ##gps# fix

That said... I assume they fixed it. I posted 2 times before in this thread but no one responded
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Really? I didn't see anything on it anywhere
[EVO 4G General] ibcenu:
The only thing I can think of (if they did not fix it) is that by going to a stock evo, rooting then flashing CM7.... maybe that was the same as going to a sense rom and doing the ##gps fix???? don't know...I just assumed they fixed it?
[EVO 4G General] foueddyf:
I don't know about the gps being fixed but it appears there's been some gps commits today among lots of other commits.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Cyanogen and his team frown upon using any other a2sd method other than their own. You rarely see darktremor comments thrown around here cause cm mod has native a2sd so why would you need darktremor. Just use a cache cleaner problem solved. I honestly haven't heard people talk about dark tremor since android 2.1 to tell you the truth. I just don't get why you need darktemor when this has native, you don't even need an ext system to get a2sd to work.
[EVO 4G General] posguy99:
You're supposed to be able to hear yourself talk on the phone.

[EVO 4G General] ageesm:
Thank you for the response.

That is perfectly fine, thank you for explaining :). I don't want to get into an argument about a2sd, it is a completely different process than the native app2sd built into 2.2+. In my opinion it is much more robust and functional, though certainly not as user friendly. If you haven't heard much about it after 2.1 then you likely haven't used a variety of ROMs because the majority of them still use it (even most AOSP based roms). No need for a response just my basic opinion.

I'm not trying to convert anyone, I was just curious because I had seen some posts in various places of people with it working, that was all. The fact that Cyanogen and his team frown upon it explains a lot though. I have been using the built-in function since I haven't been able to use DT, which is perfectly fine and functional and I can get used to it, it was pure curiosity, not a real deal breaker. :) Like I said since CM is so light anyway there is much more space to work with than a typical Sense rom (even if you remove most bloat yourself).

I usually clean my caches out manually every so often anyway because I am flashing some new mod/theme/kernel I have found...such is the life of a flashaholic :D
[EVO 4G General] seriousblack25:
I mean that I can hear myself and not the person whos calling...i have to hang up and call back .....
[EVO 4G General] kevinbear:
The main reason I would like to be able to use DarkTremor's solution is because I have had my .android_secure files get corrupted a few times and had to wipe and reinstall all the apps. My nandroid of it was corrupted as well somehow. Has happened a couple of times now. Not a huge deal, but I didn't have issues with DarkTremor's way.

Mostly, though, it's just nice to have options.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
This just happened to me dude wtf
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
I just don't use sense at all and cm roms always had the native. But no argument here dude you obviously know much more about a2sd and darktremers than I do so I'm learning new info. But yeah cyanogen wont even respond to you if you ask him about any other tweaks or scripts that usually arent in his rom especially darktremor lol. That's probably why no one responded to you cause cyanogen used to place that as a disclaimer lol. Cm is and has been the only aosp I've used so I don't have any exp with DT. This isn't the first time I've heard great things about DT a2sd. Thanks for the info man.

Running 27 now. Running smoothly as the last few have.

I just noticed that there is an option to add a launcher to the rotary lockscreen that can be used for an application or whatnot. Sorry if this is old or has been mentioned here, the search on the xda app sucks.

Sent from my PC36100 with CM7
[EVO 4G General] ageesm:
Gotcha, makes sense.

For anyone...I have noticed that certain apps' associated widgets do not show up in the list. Is this because CM is overriding the ability to put it on the sd (.android_secure) even though the developer doesn't support it? So for those I am assuming they have to be on phone, as soon as I move em back, boom, widget is selectable.

FWIW, this is one of the things DT fixes because it actually links the app to /data/app so everything reading it thinks it is still there.
[EVO 4G General] ibcenu:
I think its new... mine has a glitch... I assigned an app to start and while it will launch the app... it says I'm starting messaging
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
That explains why my Widgets always say "problem loading widget almost everytime I flash a nightly over lol guess it makes sense now.
[EVO 4G General] r0cky0790:

[EVO 4G General] blackroseMD1:
Yeah, mine says that too. They probably just forgot to change the wording to something like Program or App or something...
[EVO 4G General] anaglich:
I was hoping for a way to get to messaging faster with the rotary dialer. However, if any CM devs are listening, it would be in your best interest to allow the icon to change, or be removed.
[EVO 4G General] jgalan14:
Flash 27 just now this is my first update since nightly 24 and for some reason the stern off animation is gone the only thing I messed around with in the cm settings was the locksscreen menu and the screen off animation is on, any ideas?
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
If you've gone to spare parts to change any transitions or window speed that's why. Go back and set it all back to normal then you'll get your animation back :-)
[EVO 4G General] dkotoric:
Anything new in nightly 27
[EVO 4G General] blampars:
Back around the first 5 builds I was really happy to see that pushing the button on my Bluetooth headset would bring up voice commands for dialing or searching or whatever. I haven't used BT since.

Using it today and unfortunately now when I push the BT button it just dials my last called number.

Anyone know how I can get that previous functionality back? I'd really appreciate it.
[EVO 4G General] wase4711:
which headset are you using?

I've never been able to do that with a CM7 nightly; using a jawbone icon or a plantronics pro +
[EVO 4G General] blampars:
I've got a Motorola h690 headset.

it was awesome the last time I used it. Wishing I could get it to do it again!
[EVO 4G General] wase4711:
You were lucky; I am not aware of any BT headset that will do that with CM7..

The new Jawbone ERA might, but I dont have one yet...
[EVO 4G General] jgalan14:
Thanks for the help, I forgot about not messing with spare parts lol
[EVO 4G General] sxayarath:
When I long press my jawbone icon, I get the voice command menu.

[EVO 4G General] HooliganAMA:

[EVO 4G General] ace586:
Really? Still seems pretty broken to me. Locks, then drops after a minute or so. Sometimes refuses to even pull up GPS until after I've closed Maps, and then just sits there like an idiot flashing the GPS icon for a while.

In short, it seems to be acting exactly as it always has been. No change in 25.

So, can we come to the conclusion that the only way to fix this is to flash back to Sense and use the workaround? Or should I keep holding out hope that this will somehow be fixed in a later nightly?
[EVO 4G General] terryazthompson:
Blueant t1. Cm7 has always pulled up "blootooth voice dialer" and still works. But I m curious will this let me do anything else besides calling?
[EVO 4G General] krazyflipj:
Another Gingerbread rom
[EVO 4G General] krazyflipj:
If you really need GPS, then just do the workaround. I'm sure it will be fixed sometime in the near future.

@Laydros, can you add the "GPS workaround" to the OP?
[EVO 4G General] ageesm:
Well that is no fun. The phone gives the illusion of being snappier with the animations on fast..:(
[EVO 4G General] halorin:
I think the GPS fix may have fixed my scrolling issue. I'm on the gb wimax rom, which runs a little choppy but it's responsive. Downloading the latest nightly now to test. Fingers crossed. D:
[EVO 4G General] matt2053:
Tell me about it, I don't even have a need to use A2SD of any variety anymore, I just install everything internal. No more disappearing widgets, no more scouring the phone for anything I can move..... Easily my favorite aspect of CM.
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
I agree, do people really need THAT many apps installed at all times? I always uninstall apps I don't use often.. like TB, syncmypix, things liek that..because it's always easy to just reinstall them from the market whenever I need them.

Plus, makes it easier to find rogue apps that are causing problems.
[EVO 4G General] barnacles10:
Yup, then that time you need TB, and you're in a basement or an area with no service, it makes it that much more of an inconvenience =P
[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
Well, for me personally.. I never need TB when I don't have service. I only back up when I'm about to do clean installs..which is never anywhere but my computer.

I understand it may be different for some people, but not enough to worry about apps2sd other than the one cm has.

[EVO 4G General] fonewiz:
One more question..

My phone seems really sluggish lately, like maybe since build 15 or so.. Been on nightly since the beginning but the slow down only started at about 15 or so.

More specifically, doing things like hitting the home button while in an app, takes forever to exit the app, let 5 seconds or more sometimes.

Also, turning the phone where the screen use to rotate almost instantly, now takes forever and a day it seems like. Again, maybe like 5 seconds or more just for the screen to rotate after turning it.

Thoughts?
[EVO 4G General] matt2053:
My wifi is broken too. It won't reconnect at all unless I set wifi sleep policy to never.
[EVO 4G General] zonyl:
+1

There are two wifi issues I have seen myself with cm kernels and reported here:

1. CM 6 + 7 : Wifi reliablity / reception is poor compared to sense roms / kernel. Signal strength is not as good and drops connection quite often.

2. CM 7: If the Wifi is turned on/off repeatedly (whether through UI, tasker, or policy set to display off) there appears to be a chance that it wont come back on correctly and takes a while to connect or wont connect at all until reboot ( WiFi status: "error" )

so i just tested out MIUI and it's an interesting concept a lil to slow for me being that it's on 2.2 and not 2.3, but that's beside the point, is there a way to use the dialer or change the dialer so that it's like MIUI. the main point being that i can search for phone numbers using the dialer and not searching through my entire contact list.
[EVO 4G General] dwhitman:
I've never had this problem, but I've heard people reporting it even on stock ROM Evos. I think the consensus is that it's a grounding issue. You might experiment with a different charger, or plugging the charger into a different outlet.

While at root I'm pretty sure it's a hardware issue with certain Evos or chargers, I vaguely remember that HTC improved things via an OTA update. I'm not sure what they did; might be worth googling around for Evo/touchscreen/ground, stuff like that.

[EVO 4G General] Rippley05:
This may be true, but it certainly isn't the case for me. When i first got my evo, I had it about a month before I rooted it. I used to sit in my bed at night while it was plugged in and play on the phone relentlessly without issues.

Right now, I can flash a sense rom and have zero issues with it, but on cm.. it's just wonky. This is all with the charger that came with it.. however, while it's plugged into the PC.. I don't seem to have the issue. Haven't tried it enough to know for sure tho.

Honestly, it isn't a big deal to me at all.. I rarely ever need to do anything on the phone while it's plugged up.. I can usually plug it up for 10 minutes or so and unplug it for whatever I need to do if it's that important. I know the case may be different for others, and it may be a big deal.. just isn't for me personally.
